Mechatronics Engineering

Mechatronics is a blend of mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, computer control and information technology. Mechatronics is a design process to create more functional and adaptable products..

With this pathway programme of study you learn to design products and processes effectively with a focus on quality, function, speed and reliability.

Categories

Mechatronics engineering two year pathway program enables students to complete the first two years at GISM Campus and transfer to the third year of the BEng.(Hons) in Mechatronics Engineering degree of the Edinburgh Napier University (ENU), UK. Upon completion of the first year and second year, students will get the Diploma and Higher Diploma in Engineering respectively.

Through GISM Pathway programmes, students can save upto Rs. 7.2 million by studying the first two years in Sri Lanka. Students will be guided by a well qualified and experiences panel of lecturers consisting of engineers in the relevant disciplines and other professionals directly relevant to the chosen stream. Most of the lecturers are PhD or MSc qualified with years of teaching experiences both in Sri Lanka and abroad.
